All the more pressure on us as parents to teach healthy living while they are young!Sweat Is My Sanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16832198640246052527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782228727051719570.post-90264090020768516722013-08-31T20:11:45.941-07:002013-08-31T20:11:45.941-07:00Maybe working the holiday weekend (Fri-Mon) is a b...Maybe working the holiday weekend (Fri-Mon) is a blessing- I get to avoid all of the temptation! I work PM shift so we only have time in the morning to get our workout in and for me to get ready for work, eat a healthy lunch, and pack my healthy supper.<br /><br />My boys love trail mix. My older two boys are to the point of taking their own snacks this year which is really nice. I am excited to try this trail mix and see what they think. I am sure they will love it! I am not a fan of providing snacks for the whole class- I know that I try to choose healthy options but don't always like the options provided by others. <br /><br />I have to admit that egg plant and sweet potatoes are new to us and I can't wait to try them. We have started using zucchini in lots of our meals and it has been going over well for me and my husband- taking a bit longer for my boys to get on board with some of our new recipes.<br /><br />I have to agree that the checkout lines are so frustrating! It is fairly easy to avoid the aisles where you know those items are located but then you have to stand by them while waiting to check out. For the most part I am able to avoid the temptation but it is always a struggle with my boys! Why can't we put some fruit or other healthy option along the checkout lanes?

I'm more distracted by the magazines when I'm standing in line :)<br /><br />The package makes the stress go away while you're eating it but ONLY while you're eating it and if you're anything like me the stress is worse afterwards. Like you said it's a cycle.<br /><br />Just so I end this on a positive note I love roasted eggplant and sweet potatoes. And zucchini too!jillconyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398264402337362781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782228727051719570.post-85324491985226928012013-08-31T04:28:12.160-07:002013-08-31T04:28:12.160-07:00I love eggplant fixed that way. and sweet potatoe...I love eggplant fixed that way. and sweet potatoes. We can't bring home baked goods for snacks in kindergarten and I hate sorting through all the processed crap finding a healthy snack for the whole class. I also kind of hate the thought of what other kids might be bringing in..aack! Luckily next year they bring a snack only for themselves.Christy @ My Dirt Road Anthem: A Runner's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05571125963317402377noreply@blogger.com
